is that against the law? >> it's rather odd. >> does that make it more? is it odd in this climate, the climate's wrong. >> it was effusive. >> i'm more interested in mayor bloomberg and what's going on there. >> continue. jim. >> you know, mayor bloomberg obviously had the opportunity to have the president come to new york when the president comes to visit new jersey and basically said the trip to new jersey will suffice. and he said last night, he didn't mean to diss him. the truth is, both these guys have a lot on their hands. i don't think that blmberg's thinking a lot about politics right now. i think he's thinking about people where the streets are flooded and people are dying. on either one, i think both of them are doing, what do you do for your state and city? i think the rest of us have a lot of fun trying to read the body language, the subtext. >> willie, bloomberg scalded the president in "the atlantic" interview. this is personal. >> i would say this is a pattern with mayor bloomberg, but i'm with mika on chris christie. he's trying to do a jo

show his student transcripts all to diminish the president's academic rise to editor of the harvard law review. yes, it's all directed at drumming up the blue collar white vote for the republican ticket and, yes, it smells. david corn is author of "the 47 percent" and joy reid is managing editor of the grio. both are msnbc political analysts. if the romney campaign is really winning, you have to ask, then you wouldn't think they'd be acting like this. take a look at romney campaign co-chair and former new hampshire governor john sununu last night on cnn and fox. >> when you take a look at colin powell, you have to wonder whether that's an endorsement based on issues or whether he's got a slightly different reason for preferring president obama. >> what reason would that be? >> well, i think when you have somebody of your own race that you're proud of being president of the united states, i applaud colin for standing with him. he supported a bankruptcy and eventual support from the federal government after the bankruptcy. but the important thing is that's the past. >> no, he did not. >>
